Mike Michaud: “It is disheartening to me that the DoD and VA have made little progress towards integrating the care and coordination…”

There is no better way to overcome a trickle of doubt than with a flood of naked truth.

And so our bill, the PAWS Act, takes these veterans, particularly the ones that have severe Post-Traumatic Stress, and authorizes a small amount of funding so that the VA can pair them with specially trained service dogs.

As a veteran, I don't feel like I needed to be rebooted, because I am concerned that word by itself may detract somewhat from the decision that our young men and women are making to serve their country.

This has strong support from key veterans groups, like the VFW and The American Legion.
